Excursions

So much Switzerland in so little space

The surroundings of Lucerne are just as fascinating as the city itself. The lake and mountains offer numerous possibilities for unforgettable excursions – all within easy reach of Lucerne. Nowhere else will you find so much Switzerland within such a small area.

Take a relaxing steamer trip on Lake Lucerne and store up some energy in the “Mediterranean” climate of the Lucerne Riviera with its idyllic resorts of Weggis and Vitznau and top quality wellness spas. Climb up to some well-known summits: the steepest cog railway in the world will bring you to the top of Mount Pilatus. Mount Titlis has eternal snow and Mount Rigi is a popular destination all year round. Those who want to experience nature at its purest should visit the UNESCO Biosphere Entlebuch with its unspoilt rugged landscape.
